She had to admit that it was really difficult to predict the vampire woman's actions, named Bianca Pedrosa. Who happened to be her best friend since she was in high school. Her eyes still twinkled in disbelief as she saw with her own eyes how Bianca's bluster had managed to push back William Schneider's army, which outnumbered them. Even though Karl had been assisted by a team of bodyguards hired by Karl to protect her, as well as several of Stephen's subordinates who came to help Stephen, Isabella, and Erna (who, unexpectedly, had much better fighting skills than her), they were still outnumbered if she compared them with William's troop. And what made her even more surprised was that Bianca's threatening bluff managed to make William Schneider, the leader of a rebel organisation that wants to overthrow the caste system in the supernatural world for purposes she could not understand until now, back off from the place and even ask his people to withdraw from the sudden battle. The we
Alec continued to stare at the figure of Nicholas who seemed to be busy wrestling with his own thoughts full of worry. What the immortal dragon of the Southampton clan has done since they arrived at one of the biggest shopping malls in Waterford city (which is also the place where he almost lost his life when he was still in a relationship with Erna) and stopped by the supermarket inside the mall building. it's just pushing a trolley train without any direction and purpose.What was Nicholas thinking right now, he muttered to himself. Curiosity mixed with worry enveloped him even more to the point that he could no longer contain it. He continued to follow the pace of Nicholas' footsteps, closely observing their angry faces.Is there something that you are worried about, again he asked the question in his heart while still trying to guess the meaning of the expression that Nicholas was making at this time. Her eyes continued to follow Nicholas' figure, while her little heart repeatedly
Chapter 204Alec gulped as soon as he realized that his hand moved involuntarily to grip Nicholas's arm. His eyes blinked with nervousness and confusion when he saw the figure of Nicholas who turned their bodies and looked at him with a look of astonishment.Damn, he muttered to himself as soon as he realized the carelessness he had just done. Now, what excuse should he give Nicholas? There was no way she could tell Nicholas that she was suddenly moved by her fear of failing to protect Nicholas as she had failed to protect Erna back then.“Th-thanks…”His brow furrowed as soon as he saw Nicholas' face turning red, looking down to avoid eye contact with him. There was a hint of nervousness in their tone of voice when they said that sentence because they didn't understand why they were saying it. He didn't feel he was doing anything that deserved their thanks, so he didn't know what response he should give."No problem," he said lightly as he released his grip from Nicholas' left arm, h
"Just put all the stuff you took back into the cart."Alec held Nicholas' wrist, shaking his head when he saw that Nicholas didn't follow his orders right away."But--""I told you, didn't I? I'm not mad at you," he continued as he released his grip on Nicholas' wrists, retrieving all the extruded food Nicholas had taken back to the shopping trolley so brutally that it caught the attention of several old ladies shopping for necessities. their daily life around the two of them.In fact, he had taken some of the extruded food around the shelf at random, which their packaging had caught his eye, regardless of what the extruded food was or what it tasted like, as a way of making up for his guilt for making Nicholas feel like he had misunderstood his question just now.Satisfied to see the two of them shopping trolleys which were half filled with extruded foods and midnight snacks that he felt could stave off his hunger in the middle of the night, he clapped his hands together in satisfact
It had taken him almost all day in the mall building just now to buy all the things that he and Nicholas would need in their new place. They already bought several storage boxes, towels, toiletries, cooking utensils, and toiletries, along with foods and spices that they might need in order to survive. And as a result that they shopped for a copious amount of items to the extent that they needed to take more than two trolleys just for putting all of the items they bought, the supermarket manager even offered them a delivery service to their new home at no extra cost—an extra service he just took for granted without a second thought. At least, he did not have to think about how to get all that stuff back in Klauss's not-so-spacious car, so he could breathe a sigh of relief and go to his new home without having to think about the fate of his borrowed car if he decided to not take the extra service the supermarket manager offered him earlier. His older brother would surely scold him if
Nicholas Southampton could not themself to stop smiling at the roses Alec had given him. Actually, there is nothing special about the roses that Alec gave. The roses were not even real roses that gave off a fresh and soft fragrance typical of organic fresh roses in general, but only roses made from handkerchiefs and made suddenly by the immortal man as an attempt by the man not to find them again. cry. Nothing special, really. But for them, who never even received any gifts from anyone else, the rose Alec had given them became the first gift they would take good care of. In fact, they will protect the roses by risking their lives if necessary. It was right before Askarovich sent them to the place that brought them to Alec (where to this day they still can't understand the reason why Askarovich sent them to the Berthold residence before his death) and still chose to be loyal to the werewolf immortal named William Schneider, they were indeed freed to commit crimes. whatever they want.
Alec furrowed his brows as soon as he discovered that Nicholas looked so gloomy after arriving at their new home. What he thought was a bit odd, on the ground that as far as he recalled, until the moment he and Nicholas came out of the shopping centre, Nicholas looked so excited. Even Nicholas walked with half-jumping steps while holding on to the roses he gave them while they were inside the shopping centre and buying the things they would need to live in their new residence, which they had just bought a few days ago before deciding to leave his extended family residence for good.Until they told by themself that they would take good care of the fake rose he made with all their heart, even though he had told them many times that he could give him more fresh and organic roses from the flower shop, which would be much better than the simple creations he had made only for his last effort to stop their crying if that was what they want.Yet, instead, they declined his offer."Nicholas doe
After finding that all of Schneider's troops who died after William's sudden attack had been thwarted by Bianca, were cremated by Stephen's subordinates and Pedrosa's troops, he and Karl along with Erna and Bianca went back into Karl's car. While Isabella decided to stay, reasoning that she had business to attend to, chose to ride Stephen's car.Stephen himself didn't say a word when he met her. All the super annoying werewolf man did was rub the top of his head with a facial expression filled with sadness and regret for reasons he didn't understand, before the man left him with Karl.All the way back to Stephen's residence, he could see Bianca with a radiant smile on the vampire woman's face while hugging her smartphone in front of her chest. The expression that Bianca created at this time made the vampire woman who was famous in her campus as the 'college prince' because of her cool demeanor and personality that was so masculine seem more like a moron.All because of one thing the w
